    http://www.codeproject.com/Members/Iain-Clarke[^] Someone has changed my profile picture recently to a more... contemporary one... I didn't do it, the only person who has access to a PC with my "remember me" cookies disclaims any responsibility (and photoshop ability!). The only other possibilities are... I've inadvertently "remember me"'d ona nother PC and forgotten it, or... ...someone with site access replaced my picture. Me making a mistake is VERY unlikely, so... IT'S ALL MAUNDERS FAULT! PELT HIM WITH MOULDY VEGEMITE! (If you can tell the difference...) Iain.

    I have now moved to Sweden for love (awwww). If you're in Scandinavia and want an MVP on the payroll (or happy with a remote worker), or need cotract work done, give me a job! http://cv.imcsoft.co.uk/[^]

    So, they added the horns?

        Well, the horns are all me - but the hair colour is just so-o-o-o-o not me. Iain.

                Of course it already stands for something. Looks like I'd better find new initials! IC maybe WP.

                            :laugh: It is 12.24 AM here and I'm in the middle of a compilation (which will hopefully be over in a couple of minutes). Your joke made me laugh very loud, but thankfully nobody else were woken up in the home. :)

I only get tea if I reply to her offer in Svenska I can count (I haven't quite got the hang of saying sju - I still say "shoe"), and do the funky letters (å gives me trouble still). The harder part is to not do weird things with your words - it's all very literal in its spelling. ie, There's a place near here called Garphyttan, which should be Garp-hyt-tan, and I've been saying it like Garfitan. I start a formal course next week!

                                      :laugh: I bet that has raised a couple of eyebrows :-D You live in what's called "Gnällbältet". The dialect spoken in that area (stretches from just west of Örebro to Eskilstuna), has a high pitch in the beginning of the sentence, and then lowers continually until the end of the sentence. In Swedish, it sounds as if they are lamenting when they speak. (Gnäll = lament)

                                        Hmm, I imagine it would have raised a few eyebrows. It has just been explained to me why... (For the sake of non-swedish, kid sisters, take away the 'gar' and you have a very rude word for Ladie's Plumbing) Luckily I've only said it to one person, who kept a straight face. It sounds like I should resist picking up a local accent! Which region should I go for? Varmland gets pick on as "yokel", I gather. I've been up in Norrland/Lappland. Maybe I could speak slowly, quietly, and put in the odd "shoop" noise as punctuation? Iain.

                                        I have now moved to Sweden for love (awwww). If you're in Scandinavia and want an MVP on the payroll (or happy with a remote worker), or need cotract work done, give me a job! http://cv.imcsoft.co.uk/[^]
